More About Me
Nickname
Baby-G, G, Super-G, G-Meister, G-Force.

Grimaldi had more nicknames than his brothers because he couldn't hear us calling him - as he was deaf. Since he couldn't hear, we didn't have to worry about confusing him with many different names.

My Hobbies
Looking Out the Window
I loved to look out the window. It was fun. One time, it was early in the morning, I jumped up onto the window sill but the blinds were closed so I had to try to poke through them. My adopted parents thought I was making too much noise and pulled me off the sill. Another time, I was able to put my whole body through the blinds so I could look outside.

Posing for Photographs
I confess - I was quite the ham. I used to love to have my picture taken. After all, I was very photogenic. I knew I was beautiful because I loved to look at myself in the mirror.

Playing with My Brothers
I used to love to play with my brothers Tycho and Copernicus. You can visit their home pages but they are not as nice as mine.

Master Mouser
I used to love to catch mice. I caught a total of 4. When I caught them, I liked to play with them. They seemed to like to play hide and seek.
